You can safely remove the SDCard from the PC, and plug it into the Raspberry Pi.

# Booting

After flashing the SDCard, insert it into the device and turn it on, and it will boot into the OS.

Depending on the version (application use-case), you should let the OS reach the desktop and wait while the target configurations are being set. This process will be setting up configs, apps, and permissions for the user environment, so it may take a bit.

Pressing the home button should make sure that you are set to the correct launcher UI when everthing is all set.
